Early conceptWaitlist open

One animal. One record. Every hand it passes through.

An animal’s story should not start again at every stop. We want to give each animal one record that follows it from the street to the vet, the foster home and a new family.

The problem

Where the story breaks. Five fragile handoffs.

Each time an animal moves from rescuer to vet to foster to family, notes about its health and habits get lost. These are the five moments we want to fix.

01Handoff

Street to vet

Today:

Rescuers write notes on scraps of paper or in chat apps. By the time the animal reaches a vet, where it was found and how it was hurt are often lost.

With Rehome:

Where, when and what the rescuer saw would start the record, and stay on it.

02Handoff

Vet to foster home

Today:

Fosters get an animal and a few spoken instructions. Medicine times get missed. Small warning signs are never written down.

With Rehome:

The vet’s medicine plan and a short daily check-in would live on the record.

03Handoff

Foster home to listing

Today:

Shelter teams spend hours turning notes into listings. Awkward facts get dropped. Cheerful clichés fill the gaps.

With Rehome:

Real notes would become an honest listing. Anything nobody knows says "Not provided".

04Handoff

Listing to adopter

Today:

Adopters take a pet home with no written history. Years later, a new vet has to start from nothing.

With Rehome:

The new owner would get the full record: health history, microchip and habits.

05Handoff

Owner to a new home

Today:

Owners who cannot keep a pet often turn to free ad sites or crowded shelters, because they see no safer option.

With Rehome:

Help to keep the pet first. If that fails, a safe way to find a new home directly.

How it fits together

The Loop. Never start from zero again.

Today each handoff starts a fresh file. We want one record that grows at every step: the report, the vet visit, the foster notes and the adoption.

Report

Someone sees an animal that needs help and tells us where it is.

An example, not a real animal

One animal. One record. Bramble’s unbroken timeline.

Follow Bramble, a made-up dog, from the canal bank to a foster home. Nothing is lost on the way.

His listing shows only what people saw and checked.

How we would use AI

AI advises. People decide.

AI would help with the typing and the checking. It would never approve an adoption, diagnose an illness or hide a bite history.

A person decides every adoption
A vet makes every medical decision
Anything unknown says "Not provided"

Four jobs for AI, and their limits

Full AI Specification →
JOB 01What it would do

Drafting listings from notes

You give:

Photos, a vet’s discharge note, a quick voice memo.

You get:

A draft listing. Anything you did not say is marked "Not provided".

It never adds traits, guesses a breed or hides a warning. A person checks the draft.
JOB 02What it would do

Suggesting animals that fit

You give:

Your answers: work hours, garden, stairs, other pets.

You get:

Animals that might suit you, and why.

It suggests. The shelter decides.
JOB 03What it would do

Showing it in your language

You give:

Notes written in any language.

You get:

The same notes in the reader’s language.

The original stays one tap away. It never changes a vet’s words.
JOB 04What it would do

Flagging listings that look risky

You give:

Listings, photos and reports.

You get:

A flag on copied photos, repeat reports or deposit requests.

A flag is not a verdict. A person looks at every one.

Why trust it

Animal welfare cannot be built on classified ads and paper receipts.

Free ad sites make it easy to sell sick animals, take deposits and disappear. We want safety built into every handoff, not added later.

No one pays to "hold" an animal. You meet in person before any handoff.
Every shelter, rescue and vet would be checked before they can list or treat.
A lost pet is never handed over on a photo alone. The microchip and owner are checked first.
A stock photo is never shown as an animal looking for a home. Samples say "Illustrative image".
Our starting point
“An animal’s history belongs to the animal. It should not be locked in one company’s system, lost in a filing cabinet, or sold.”
